Iwan's Weightloss Journal

Heya's IWAN,
Why do you have to fast on Thanksgiving?I know
it's gonna be a rough day for everyone but you should eat something
so your body don't starve and then what usually happeneds is you
eat everything in sight the 1st chance you get well that's atleast
what happends to me.
If you feel the need to fast maybe make it a eat all the veggies and
fruits you want so your not starving and you have some satisfaction
of eating and healthy foods at that. Thats just my 2cents
well have a Happy Thanksgiving,Tammy:)
 
I'll spare you my mordant views of holidays like thanksgiving. let's just say, its a protest of sorts. And one day of fasting will not "starve" this body...trust me.
 
Good Luck with the fast. Make sure you drink lots of water!! And if you feel ill please drink some juice or something!!! *concerned face*

Have a great day! :D
 
I have a desperate need to go and weigh myself...wtf?? I never feel like that...lol! But I feel bloated...like I've gained again (thank you pumpkin pie) and I soooo don't wanna have to re-lose weight again...sucks, I could have been in onederland by now.
 
I weight myself on Wednesdays.. just a mid week check, nothing offical. I was i n the twos today! :eek: Hope it holds out until Friday..lol
 
You'll do it. Just get over this Holiday! All the food they are marketing makes it hard to resist, but you'll work through it. You got a lot of determination!!:)
 
Okay, three different scales, three different stories.
My mom's scale: 210
Work scale: 206
gym scale: 208.2

Me: confused and regretful I weighed. I seem to be at a hump, can't get back below 208 (according to the gym scale) since that one fluke two weeks ago or so...

I always go with the lower scale, so that's my vote here! :D See, now don't you feel better...I always did! :p
 
So even though I refuse to attend thanksgiving dinner at my moms house because my grandpa won't be there she says I still have to make 3 pumpkin pies and one splenda apple pie (for the diabetics). *cries!* I don't wanna!! I hate baking. it smells so good and I have NO self control.

I'm not doing very good on my 2000 cals today. I've only had about 300 because I've been a tid bit busy (coffee, whole wheat bread w/ an egg and mustard). I did find another scale to weigh on this afternoon though. I had to drop by the emergency room to interview an assault vic and I used their digital scale which read 207.42. I usually weigh on the gym scale, so I'm trusting that one for now. Just so you know, my medical chart says my last weight was 215.5 lbs on October 24th (when I tore my rotator cuff and went to the doc). I'm not losing very fast and thats disappointing! I'm like the snail of the weightloss scene.

AND!!! I just found out that the gym is closed tomorrow morning so I can't go and do cardio. Poop! I pay for the membership! I should be able to work out on a holiday that I don't celebrate! its like...discrimination or something! And, on top of that I'm being forced to not only take tomorrow off work but friday also. I have so much crap to get done, its just unacceptable that my employer is shutting me out like this. The chairman literally said, take some leave or I'll fire you. What? so I guess hard work and dedication get you fired these days. Remember a month ago when all I wanted to do was quit and find a new job? what is wrong with me?
 
WHERE IS EVERYONE??? j/k...I know ya'll are stuffing your faces. My fast is going good. But its noon here so I really havn't felt hungry yet. So far I've had a latte and some diet coke. I've got three freakin pies sitting here in front of my face till I get off my lazy bum and drive them over to my moms house. I made a fusion pie, I had some pumpkin pie filling left over and an extra crust so I baked the pumpkin till it was firm, threw some apple pie filling on top of the pumpkin and another crust with a fancy schmancy vent detail ( I was bored and a lil' bit drunk) and baked it for another 30 minutes. it looks good! Can't wait till tomorrow when I can eat some...lol!

So, my laptop is all screwed up. I have to get on line in a round about kind of way because my internet explorer is glitching. Its not a virus, I scanned twice, I think its a programming error. So tonight I have to boot the hard drive and reinstall everything. Anybody know how I go about that? Com'on, I know there is a bunch of computer peeps on here! HEEELLLPPPP!!!
course it could be my network connection too...its even been really slow at the office.
 
Wait...you're seriously upset that you don't have to work? Also, what about all those other poor souls who are super happy that they get the day off to spend with their families. I don't get it, Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks for the things that you have and to spend time with family...unless it's a religous reason...what's so horrible about Thanksgiving that you'd rather work?
 
Hiii Iwan!! Hope the fasting went well. Your pie sounds yummy!!!
Sorry you didn't get to work. How frustrating to be on a protest & not be able to occupy your time with work.

Don't worry about the lack of progress on the weight front. While it must be soo frustrating, it will come off when it's time. Hang in there girly!! I'm rootin for yah!! :D:D
 
Hey! Sorry I didn't update or anything yesterday, I have been so busy getting ready for an arts and crafts fair. My mom is going to be out of town from today till goddess knows when (at my brothers) and my step dad is going with her so there goes my FREE child care *pouts like a spoiled brat*. So I have to sell my mom's herbs and stuff at the fair (she's an herbalist) along with my massage oils, bath teas, dusting powders, clay masques and paintings and my departement raffles off a giant christmas (ahem...holiday....) stocking for the kids every year as a fundraiser, so I'll be displaying that and selling tickets.
My fast went splendidly, I wasn't hungry at all which worries me...lol. Then yesterday I ate some leftovers and got food poisoning and was up till 3am this morning in the bathroom. I think it was the stuffing. My mom thinks it was all the wine I drank (I only had two glasses...okay, they were huge glasses). My grandpa came home yesterday, poor fella's moving pretty slow. But he was really happy to be home. They have been gone since the beginning of october, so almost two months in the hospital.
Anyways, I better get going, its going to be a busy day.
 
Heya's Iwan,
Sounds hectic and busy for you this week!
Hope you get to feeling better watch those calories getting to low
cuz so does your energy lol I actually learned that 1. Hope your
weekewnd goes gr8 have fun at the fair and remember SELL SELL
SELL lol my jeans on ebay are doing good but I did a flat rate deal

of jeans and it cost me $13.82 cheapest way to go.
I would love to get into that but I have not much experience in
selling on internet.Well have a gr8 weekend,Tammy:)
 
Okay, yesterday was hades! But I sold four paintings and one of them was purchased by the museum curator. So it was a good day, except for the weather which sucked. carrying paintings (some big ones at that) in 60 mile an hour winds was not fun. I'm glad I had less to take home then I brought. But, then after I knew I was making money I decided to go shopping...bad girl. I bought another antique Qashqai rug from Iran. because you can't have just one...okay, you can but for some reason I can't stop buying them. This time I used the excuse that my mom needs a rug. *rolls eyes*
I didn't eat much all day, a turkey sandwich on whole wheat. Then when I got home I had thanksgiving leftovers (sans stuffing...ick!), way too much, but oh well.
I was at my booth selling my stuffs and that new teacher I spoke of many many pages ago walked by and gave me a "look", you know the one. The good kind. He gave me the exact same look at the grocery store a few days ago too. I'm starting to wonder if he gives everybody the "look". or just me. *makes googly eyes*
Well, I'm off to post in diaries!
